Bug Fix
Description:
Metadata cache in parallel I/O can cause hangs in applications which
perform independent I/O on chunked datasets, because the metadata cache
can attempt to flush out dirty metadata from only a single process, instead
of collectively from all processes.
Solution:
Pass a dataset transfer property list down from every API function which
could possibly trigger metadata I/O.
Then, split the metadata cache into two sets of entries to allow dirty
metadata to be set aside when a hash table collision occurs during
independent I/O.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel

Code cleanup/new feature.
Description:
Split FUNC_LEAVE into API and non-API specific versions. This allows a
solution to compiling this branch with C++, as well as reducing the size
of the binaries produced.

Lots of performance improvements & a couple new internal API interfaces.
Description:
Performance Improvements:
- Cached file offset & length sizes in shared file struct, to avoid
constantly looking them up in the FCPL.
- Generic property improvements:
- Added "revision" number to generic property classes to speed
up comparisons.
- Changed method of storing properties from using a hash-table
to the TBBT routines in the library.
- Share the propery names between classes and the lists derived
from them.
- Removed redundant 'def_value' buffer from each property.
- Switching code to use a "copy on write" strategy for
properties in each list, where the properties in each list
are shared with the properties in the class, until a
property's value is changed in a list.
- Fixed error in layout code which was allocating too many buffers.
- Redefined public macros of the form (H5open()/H5check, <variable>)
internally to only be (<variable>), avoiding innumerable useless
calls to H5open() and H5check_version().
- Reuse already zeroed buffers in H5F_contig_fill instead of
constantly re-zeroing them.
- Don't write fill values if writing entire dataset.
- Use gettimeofday() system call instead of time() system when
checking the modification time of a dataset.
- Added reference counted string API and use it for tracking the
names of objects opening in a file (for the ID->name code).
- Removed redundant H5P_get() calls in B-tree routines.
- Redefine H5T datatype macros internally to the library, to avoid
calling H5check redundantly.
- Keep dataspace information for dataset locally instead of reading
from disk each time. Added new module to track open objects
in a file, to allow this (which will be useful eventually for
some FPH5 metadata caching issues).
- Remove H5AC_find macro which was inlining metadata cache lookups,
and call function instead.
- Remove redundant memset() calls from H5G_namei() routine.
- Remove redundant checking of object type when locating objects
in metadata cache and rely on the address only.
- Create default dataset object to use when default dataset creation
property list is used to create datasets, bypassing querying
for all the property list values.
- Use default I/O vector size when performing raw data with the
default dataset transfer property list, instead of querying for
I/O vector size.
- Remove H5P_DEFAULT internally to the library, replacing it with
more specific default property list based on the type of
property list needed.
- Remove redundant memset() calls in object header message (H5O*)
routines.
- Remove redunant memset() calls in data I/O routines.
- Split free-list allocation routines into malloc() and calloc()-
like routines, instead of one combined routine.
- Remove lots of indirection in H5O*() routines.
- Simplify metadata cache entry comparison routine (used when
flushing entire cache out).
- Only enable metadata cache statistics when H5AC_DEBUG is turned
on, instead of always tracking them.
- Simplify address comparison macro (H5F_addr_eq).
- Remove redundant metadata cache entry protections during dataset
creation by protecting the object header once and making all
the modifications necessary for the dataset creation before
unprotecting it.
- Reduce # of "number of element in extent" computations performed
by computing and storing the value during dataspace creation.
- Simplify checking for group location's file information, when file
has not been involving in file-mounting operations.
- Use binary encoding for modification time, instead of ASCII.
- Hoist H5HL_peek calls (to get information in a local heap)
out of loops in many group routine.
- Use static variable for iterators of selections, instead of
dynamically allocation them each time.
- Lookup & insert new entries in one step, avoiding traversing
group's B-tree twice.
- Fixed memory leak in H5Gget_objname_idx() routine (tangential to
performance improvements, but fixed along the way).
- Use free-list for reference counted strings.
- Don't bother copying object names into cached group entries,
since they are re-created when an object is opened.
The benchmark I used to measure these results created several thousand
small (2K) datasets in a file and wrote out the data for them. This is
Elena's "regular.c" benchmark.
These changes resulted in approximately ~4.3x speedup of the
development branch when compared to the previous code in the
development branch and ~1.4x speedup compared to the release
branch.
Additionally, these changes reduce the total memory used (code and
data) by the development branch by ~800KB, bringing the development
branch back into the same ballpark as the release branch.
I'll send out a more detailed description of the benchmark results
as a followup note.
New internal API routines:
Added "reference counted strings" API for tracking strings that get
used by multiple owners without duplicating the strings.
Added "ternary search tree" API for text->object mappings.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
Other platforms/configurations tested?

Purpose:
New API functions
Description:
Added API functions to return pointer to low-level file handle
(H5Fget_vfd_handle and H5FDget_vfd_handle) and related property list
setting functions(H5Pset_family_offset and H5Pset_multi_type).

Code cleanup
Description:
Combined H5P_isa_class and H5I_object functionality into a new internal
H5P API function: H5P_object_verify, which checks that a property list is
the appropriate class and then returns the property list object associated
with the property list ID.
This reduces the source code by about 200 LOC and trims the library binary
some more.

Code cleanup
Description:
Change most (all?) HRETURN_ERROR macros to HGOTO_ERROR macros, along with
HRETURN macros to HGOTO_DONE macros. This unifies the error return path
from functions and reduces the size of the library by up to 10% on some
platforms.
Additionally, I improved a lot of the error cleanup code in many routines.

New feature.
Description:
Added a "small data" block allocation mechanism to the library, similar to
the mechanism used for allocating metadata currently.
See the RFC for more details:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/SmallData/SmallData.html
This reduces the number of I/O operations which hit the disk for my test
program from 19 to 15 (i.e. from 393 to 15, overall).
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN and FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir) w/C++

Code cleanup
Description:
Broke the FUNC_ENTER macro into several macros, with more specialized
uses (which followup mail will describe). This was designed to move
most/all of the checks which could be done at compile time to that point,
instead of needlessly performing them (over & over :-) at run-time.
This reduces the library's size (and thus staticly linked binaries) and
has a minor speedup effect also.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) with parallel & FORTRAN enabled, and additional testing
on FreeBSD and Solaris immediately after the checkin.

New Feature
Description:
The VFL flush function is called immediately before a file is closed.
This can cause duplicate syncronization actions to occur, if the VFL
close function also performs them.
Solution:
Added 'closing' parameter to VFL 'flush' operation. This allows the VFL
flush function to bypass operations that will be duplicated within the VFL
close function.
Additionally, use the 'closing' parameter to bypass calls to MPI_File_sync()
when set. Since MPI_File_close() also syncronizes the file, this avoids
the terrible performance hit taken when calling MPI_File_sync() as the file
is closing.

Code cleanup (sorta)
Description:
When the first versions of the HDF5 library were designed, I remembered
vividly the difficulties of porting code from a 32-bit platform to a 16-bit
platform and asked that people use intn & uintn instead of int & unsigned
int, respectively. However, in hindsight, this was overkill and
unnecessary since we weren't going to be porting the HDF5 library to
16-bit architectures.
Currently, the extra uintn & intn typedefs are causing problems for users
who'd like to include both the HDF5 and HDF4 header files in one source
module (like Kent's h4toh5 library).
Solution:
Changed the uintn & intn's to unsigned and int's respectively.

Bug fix
Description:
When the v1.2 compatibility code was turned on, internal functions in the
library were getting confused.
Solution:
Separated guts of H5Pget_driver call into an API function (the definition
of which depends on the compatibility switch) and an internal function
which always behaves like the v1.3/4 function. Replaced API function calls
in the library code with the internal function.

[Please as detail as you can since your own explanation is
better than others guessing it from the code.]
Platforms tested:
No test has been done because these are all typos, no effect on

Feature symmetry
Description:

Maintainance & performance enhancements
Description:
Re-arranged header files to protect private symbols better.
Changed optimized regular hyperslab I/O to compute the offsets more
efficiently from previous method of using matrix operations.
Added sequential I/O operations at a more abstract level (at the same level
as H5F_arr_read/write), to support the optimized hyperslab I/O.
